The entire sgs system was total crap. I had 2 captivates neither of which could carry a gps lock. Sammy said it would be fixed with software and released the sgs2. Never samsung again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
he aint jacking no threads, he and I been chatting a bit about this, also in the past. He makes a good point, if he has a good one, Ill take it, I dont care if its used and he seems honest to me. Also hes said nothing but good things about the g2x, yes he prefers his sensation, but thats not the point. I appreciate his offer and will consider it if on thursday my new one is the same.

Thanks JW
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I agree. The damn thing sucked at locking anything. :( Although the rest of the phone was pretty awesome minus the super Amoled. Yes its colorful but once you have a g2x, the colors are close and the clarity and crispness of the letters are night and day vs the two.

Also I just love the for factor of the g2x. I still think 4.0 is the perfect size. I love the curved edges and the way the Hdmi port looks with its cool lil cover. I love how the grills are at the bottom. The phone just looks like a mean machine. Hell I actually like that extra space at the bottom so many people frown on. I love this damn phone. I just was saying that Its true, there are defective ones that have screen of death.

And I say again, just exchange it till you get one that works. I know ive had a few none issue ones with rebooting or freezing while charging.

SO YA<stop the trolling person who said Samsuck.. lol jk;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] laker666:
So if you've had "good ones" why don't you have a good one now?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
you sir. cannot read. LOL:D

jrwingate6

, been blathering this same post much more than 3 times. He goes on and on how his phone works wonderfully. He got the phone for free, is now saying he uses the Senstation, and claims he can not even sell the device. A used G2x goes for between 250-375 on eBay all day long. Still this guy whines on thread after thread that he can not liquidate his phone.

If he wanted it sold it would be sold, period.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
That is not screen bleed, its IPS glow....its just part of the trade-offs of the technology. AMOLED super tight text reading suffers, but the AMOLED display is superfast and has perfect blacks.

re: IPS Glow see http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1036697869&postcount=1312 as just one of many examples of explanation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
what are you running? It certainly could be exactly what your are running. I also just posted a thread on how to set up a new G2x, would be interesting if you would trying that and see if it helps. What is it you have loaded? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1198094
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
Damn what's up with all the tension in this thread u guys care to much about what people do
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
ok so, I called back to check on my package/order. And the lady said she doesnt see anything yet so she went ahead and fixed it and got me a confirmation number. I dont know exactly what happened with the first but whatever.

So, I get 2 emails for 2 different confirmations. Both of course free. I even check them both on tmobile.com and there is 2 different orders on the way. Now, there expecting only 1 phone back. So, if for some reason they send me 2 phones, whatever. I will keep them both.

Oh and to the guy saying that it could be my setup. No dude, again ive had 5. And 2 running the same, rom. CM7 nightly, stock kernel, stock rom, anything. It freezes constantly. This is hardware for sure. I know my **** man. Especially when I have another running the same ****, apps, baseband, kernel, everything and its perfectly fine. Trust me. ITS HARDWARRRRE>
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
sure sure....again, what are you running on it?

Stock, CM7, you tried them all on that phone? Try letting the phone rebuild itself by doing the hard rebuilds as I outlined, and install the new Tmobile My device first.

What part of the hardware are you thinking is messed up, the internals of the CPU? The motherboard shorted out? Sorry I do think it more likely your homebrew is messed up, that a defective ICs. Nothing to do with trust....just odds. Its just silly to say that it everything anyone else would see MUST be hardware, when you are not even describing how your phone is set up....which is supposed to be the reason for the thread.....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I paid full retail price for my G2X, thank you very much. You sir need to get your facts straight or just shut the front door. I never stated I couldn't sell my G2X. In fact, I haven't even tried that hard besides offering it to a few people I KNOW in this forum. I have said before that I was trying to hold onto it a little bit longer to see if the price went up because the value dropped pretty damn fast. I have never seen a used G2X go for $375 recently. I have seen them go for about $300 and that's what I was expecting to get out of it.

Lastly, it seems as if your a little bitter about the fact I want to sell the phone you chose to buy. I really don't know what it is but your making yourself look like a moron the way you assume things and put words in other peoples mouths. Everybody has a different taste for phones and I've never said the G2X is a bad device. In my opinion its a good device. Something else just fits me better.

I some how have the feeling that if I was trying to sell my Sensation, you wouldn't be caring this much.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] secano:
*You're - Sorry, I had to. :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I kinda of don't care about punctuation, proper English or spelling when typing on mobile devices. I'm sorry you had to as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ciaphuas:
Go to Costco my wife and I both got relatively bug free G2x's but were switching to Sensations in a week or so
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
This post is retarded...lol hey go ahead and believe what you like. Again, 2 g2xs currently running the same apps, rom, meh are you a rep? Cause your really sounding like one.. I'm very experienced in this game dude...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
I don't for a second think you know what you are doing, if you did you would not be having such problems.

For whatever reason you don't want to say what kind of garbage you have clogged up your phone with. Its classic operator error, wanting to blame the hardware.

Sorry I am not a rep from T-Mobile or any other carrier, or even in the industry in any manner. So much for your self proclaimed super duper experienced mind. I realize you have another thread on how you are trying to steal phones off T-Mobile by gaming the system....so while I think you are a D-bag for doing it, you got nothing to worry about from me.

You started this thread because you claim you loaded up your phone, and it took a dump. Why you bother to start threads where the reasonable question of "what did you load on your phone" is not considered reasonable to share or respond to is beyond me.

Right now you are just a gumby-noob not knowing how to work his phone, probably restoring a broken image on a different hardware, and being confused it does not work on the 2nd hardware also.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Oooh talking **** online is tough, bet to peoples face you don't act like that.

Actually you can say you would, but I put money theres more people out there like me and you wouldn't get away with it for too long...

my names smashpunks for a reason.. I smash punks.. New phone working great running the **** as the defective one..

May2011 :D noob
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Who cares what **** he clogged his phone up with? Apps are there for a reason. To download them. No matter what you put on your phone, it should work without freezing and rebooting. Bottom line.

I guess everyone who had multiple non working G2X's are noobs then. Huh?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I was thinking the same.. Uhhh, I'm supposed to instal apps lol.. Some people
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
i see the problem

you are misreading the advertisements. it says you can download thousands of apps. it doesnt say you can install or run them.

remember phrasing of advertisements is the biggest gotcha :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
You posted that you got a phone, loaded it up to the gills with stuff, and then it has an issue when you connect the USB. And that instead of any troubleshooting, that anyone else should just assume anything remotely close is a hardware problem.

I asked you what you have loaded, is it rooted, or what not.

You profess your expertise and say nothing.

....So why bother posting a thread?

It still sounds like classic operator error. I don't see how you can take a phone that works loaded with nothing.....then load it up, and then the USB or charger starts to trigger something.

I was looking to figure out what was the difference in the out of the box phone, to what you did, to see what happened. Its NOT like you said the phone was DOA.

its pointless.....we probably all agree here.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
So I can take a phone, root it, replace the guts of the operating system and drivers, load it up with any software, and disable any normally running services.....and the phone will just glide through as if nothing.....it will always just work.

That is your premise? That any Android phone should work seamlessly no matter what the end user does? GMAFB
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pdxmatts:
I've noticed tension throughout this whole G2X forum.

My box was dated 5/14/11, but I bought it before the update. It has been perfect so far even after I updated it to 2.3.3. There are good ones out there and if you are lucky and find one, you'll see how great this phone really is. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kyior:
Am I the only one who is perfectly happy with their G2X? I dont notice any screen bleed at all. Actually my ONLY complain with the phone is the plastic over the camera on the battery case was kinda crap and broke... other then that the phone is golden...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bighulk666:
Don't know why I lived with a busted GPS for so long. Had it for dam near 4 months that way, till 2 weeks ago I had to exchange it because I couldn't handle it. My replacement has some serious bleeding on the upper right of the screen, but only notice it on boot up or black screens. The GPS now locks ~5-10 seconds outside, and maybe ~20-30 seconds indoors. I'll live with the bleed, doesn't bother me as long as my gps works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Nope, I don't think Android should work seamlessly when someone replaces the drivers, kernels, basbands and whatever else. However, Smash clearly stated that the only thing he changed was the ROM. When others are using the same exact ROM (Cyanogen) and there Android device is running seamlessly, there is no reason Smashes G2X shouldn't run seamlessly as well. This means there are issues with certain G2X's. Like I said. If everyone elses G2X works with Cyanogen, his device should work with it. I could understand if he was changing the drivers and kernel but he's not.

Once again. Show me where he said he changed all of the things you suggested. Don't put words in my mouth because I never once said that Android should run seamlessly when changing all of those things. I clearly said he should be able to run any app he wants. Unless you see something I don't?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
That smacked ass has no idea... Hell I even was stock, no apps, stock kernel etc. cm7 kernel no apps, eagles blood stock kernel no apps. No sd card or sim installed...

**** is defective,hell I thought people with issues were dumb too until I received a defective one....

Remember they sent 2 replacements? Well the first of those did the same too, the second fine... Same apps and rom as other two and perfect yet those 2 rebooted etc...

Some suck, some rock.glad I finally got another good one... A good g2x is a beast..

If your **** reboots or freezes get a replacement..

Traded one of them for a myt4g...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Yea, some of these morons don't think faulty phones exist. I hat when people try to defend something to no end accusing people they don't know how to use phones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
Yo smash that's cool u got that **** straightened out the mytouch 4g ain't bad either for a 1ghz single core, and don't worry about that noodle that dudes always whining about something, u know what it is bro;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
thanks bro and its the myt4g slide.. The dual core... :) and yep, the g2x is the **** when you get a good one... that's my wifes, mine of course is the g2x still :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Does she like the slide? I was going to buy one but the keyboard didn't feel right. I think the keys are a little too mushy compared to the 3G slide. I think I'm going to get the SGSII variant or the Hercules and just settle down with that for a while. This addiction needs to end. It was ok with a $1600 rent but not now with a $3500 mortgage. I need to get my prioritys in order because this whole buying phone after phone is getting a little too crazy. LOL.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
Nice its the slide, yea that phone is actually pretty nice man how is the camera on that, also does it lag at all? That's what the wife wants too, rite now she's got the mytouch 4g ,lol she probably wont even care as long ad it works, nice tho??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
Jesus bro what do u have a ten bedroom house? Lol I have a 4 bedroom and my house and property is a nice size and I pay 1700! And that's alot
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
damn dude, thats a mansion.lol

Anyways. She likes the slide. Its got a awesome camera like the sensation. Meh, the g2x is just my style. Again, if you get a good one. lol I say just wait for the sgs2 or hercules.

Ya this addiction is crazy, but I think with my g2x and my wife now having a slide we are good to go for a bit.:cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
camera is awesome man. Blows the g2x away. Yes there is noticeable lag. Not really lag, but not the speed of the g2x. Side by side the g2x eats it. Im waiting for s off and to get ride of sense. Actually im gonna install adw ex on it and see whats up... Maybe speed it up..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
Yea adw ex and preset to fast will definitely speed it up;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Lol, no its no mansion. Its the inflated housing prices of Baltimore County, MD.

I'm thinking the Slide should get S-Off pretty soon since its pretty much the same hardware as the Sensation which got it a couple days ago.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I sure hope so, sense kills this thing worse than the sensation. Luckily adw ex is cool and spouted it up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Yea its amazing what a launcher can do. I really hate Sense man. I've always hated and thought it was made to appease the mainstream crowd. The been version is a in optimized piece of **** with too much eye candy. Once her Slide gets rooted, definitely remove and delete Sense. After I froze it, it freed up 80 mb of RAM and the entire phone got a lot faster.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Dang 80mb. That would really speed it up.. adw for now doing wonders..

Its really a great phone. Speakers same loud as this. Screen is nice for being smaller. Good battery, I also get good battery from my g2x so that's good. Gps is good just like my g2x..

Meh, all in all I prefer my g2x but its a great phone that will only get better with soff.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I guess I could call mine perfect... It has some screen bleed, but I don't mind it. As long as it doesn't freeze or restart on me, it's all good. :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Exactly, as long as no freeze or reboots. I'll take screen bleed even though mine is minimal
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rumz786:
hi, I'm currently using no frills CPU to manage my CPU speed, with Virtous unity ROM, max is 1.5ghz, shall I do 1.2 ghz and leave it on demand or performance? What would use up the battery more?

also, what do the other options do apart from performance and on demand? Like interactive and conservative etc?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndriodLover:
I currently have mine set at 1.3 (ondemand), do not choose performance it will drain the battery.

social retardation

It's getting old reading the "local's" ripping new posters about reading the stickies and searching before posting.

The 43 pages of mindless banter between socially retarded mutants in that sticky makes me believe the truly talented and mature part of the EVO 4G crowd has left this forum and moved on.

The mass-attack posts on newbies makes one also wonder if the "locals" know anything and aren't just sitting around nursing their own ineptitude with the insults they sling at others.

Sad form and insults to this post will only prove it further.

[Fascinate General] webwhacker:
Hello, I have been a member of XDA for quite some time but always used it as a resource. I usually always found an answer to my issues and did not need to post...............until I got the fascinate. So I tried the various Tether methods and the only one that has seemed to work for me is the "Easy Tether" method. I am listing all methods and the results I had to keep others from having these issues:

ROM: CM7

Method 1: Barnacle

Mode: Adhoc (Using Samsung Facinate profile)

Result: no connection, being assigned private IP in the 169.254 subnet

Method 2: Built in wireless tether in CM7

mode: Infrastructure

Result: Getting connected but no Internet connection

Method 3: Easy Tether

mode: USB

Result: Success. Followed on screen instructions and worked flawlessly.

Method 4: Wi-Fi tether (from android market)

mode: infrastructure

Result: Getting connected but no Internet connection

Please provide your experiences and we can keep a proper log organized by ROM versions being used.

Need to change device profile and setup method in Settings to match the Fascinate. works great on Comrom 2.1 and DInc Pure Speed.
[Fascinate General] drnihili:
Just set this up on the wife's fassy running rooted stock. Works great to tether her Transformer. I'm not having as good of luck with it on CM7, but haven't mucked about in the newest version much yet.
[Fascinate General] stormywx:
Worked for me also... same config
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
Vanilla Gingerbread has it built in the rom no app needed ;). Both tethering and wifi hotspot.

good day.
[Fascinate General] DuckyDude:
have no problems running either Barnacle or Wireless Tether apps. Have used both apps on both 2.1 and 2.2, but running stock rom.
[Fascinate General] fstbusa:
what chipset are you running on your computer that you are tethering with? I was unable to get a connection with anything other than wifi tether pre14.

I have the N6200 wifi chipset and can't get any adhoc connection to work.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
N6200... Intel, according to a quick Google search. Try updating your wireless adapter's drivers, at least some of them had massive issues with adhoc mode. I ran into that issue when I first tried to tether, and even now I only have unreliable adhoc (Intel apparently didn't bother to test adhoc mode at all!).
[Fascinate General] irishcain:
Verizon is working hard to keep the fascinate (and other phones) from tethering using apps, instead making you tether through their built in, allowing them to charge you for it. In my experience however, once you've rooted your phone and flashed a new rom, barnacle usually works well. I've had to uninstall and reinstall a couple of times, but other than that, it's cake.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jdbeitz:
Hey guys. I finally got around to playing with the Kies air app...and Wow! This app has some potential for sure.

I currently own an iPad (yeah yeah yeah I know...) and Kies works fairly well. A few things i noticed is a constant refresh and just a few other bugs. Is anyone interested in cleaning up the Kies app to make things run a bit better or even writing a new app that is a little more organized/operational? I would love to help but my programming knowledge is limited :)

Thoughts??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] techboydino:
i have been getting some random shut downs but only when plugged in to a wall charger. at first i figured it was due to heat while being charged. but the phone could shut down while plugged into the wall at any given time no matter how much charge there is or how long it's been plugged. Last night I plugged it in before bed at 30% and today I woke up at 44% with the phone off. Sometimes it's minutes until it shuts down and sometimes it's hours. It's the same on any Rom/Kernel I tried. Thinking it may be a hardware issue. Any ideas? Thanks.

Currently Trigger2X 14 - Faux SV 3.5
[T-Mobile LG G2x] enoch861:
Happens to me too... I'm on stock though.

And is it me or does charging the phone off seem to be ineffective?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] techboydino:
which makes me believe this is strictly hardware. its not really like the software related reboots of the past. too bad i can't get it to go while plugged into pc, otherwise i could check logs to see what was up. let me know if you can recreate like clockwork. thx
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Its hardware trust me. I've had in total like 6 g2xs and this is the first I've had with the issue.. I also have another now.. Both have the same rom, baseband, kernel and apps. Yet my new one shuts down on the charger.... Its hardware for sure and a replacement is in route. No point trouble shooting its a bad phone.. Threes many good ones just be patient... Now to wait for replacement...
